I can imagine, the oil filter is behind the engine and at the bottom, you have to take the wheel off on mine.
I guess thats how these places make their money! Try halfords, if your really stuck my bro's got a tool account with snap on and draper, gets quite good discounts.
I just took mine round...
Let me know if its any good Dan, I tried to do an oil change on mine and I couldn't get the sump plug out for the life of me, had to take it to a garage in the end. I was using a homemade allen key time one though. The oil filter on the 1.2 16v is an arse to get to, not sure where it is on the...
Opps! Never mind at least it wasn't something major! What is it with number plates and Mot's! Mine needed a new bulb for the light that illuminates the rear plate, I checked all the bulbs except that one!
I was quite sure too, can anyone shed any light on this!
One of those cars you just have to own one day!
If I had 17k to spend on a car I wouldnt get one as their are other more practical and just as quick cars I would have. But if I won the lottery I would have one in my dream garage in liquid yellow.
Lol good.
I may be wrong here but im sure if a car comes with a spare wheel as standard (I know the 182's don't) then it has to be present and the tyre has to be legal.

The corsa 3 up from the bottom, not far from your post code either.
Carry on with the conversion Martin, thats RS money! You known your car and like you say alot of it has already been uprated. if you have never had a car with climate you wont miss it! You could always buy a shed for a few month whilst your doing the conversion. Find a Micra with some MOT on it...
I wouldnt be that bothered that they hadn't used renault genuine stripes im sure the aftermarket ones are good quality. However i would be extremely annoyed about how they have been applied. I mean wtf is that, they are way out it and looks shite! Name and shame.
Its a very beautiful area I can't take the credit! I took it with a 4mp 'point and shoot' digital camera without a tripod, think it was just lucky, it hasnt been 'shopped' either!
You can get to this one mate, its runs down beside the sailing club opposite the Haven's front beer garden. Just don't go off the end of the slipway as I did at low tide as the seaweed encourages wheelspin!
These were taken a few weeks into January at about 3pm in the afternoon on a weekday...
All three were taken at Mudeford Quay, on the slip way, you can get some nice shots when its quiet. Just don't get too carried away incase the tide comes in, almost tempting to leave the engine running incase it doesn't start again!
Sorry to hear this mate, most of its just cosmetic which I wouldnt worry about too much, I would get a new wheel and tyre on their and get the tracking checked incase you've bent something.
My 1.2 16v does a ton in 4th then pulls cleanly to 110 in 5th and if you take a few weeks off work it stops at about 116. Maximum recorded speed is 106 on the garmin though!
Lol never mind, I think mine is on the way out, my dad reckons its blowing, I would probably replace it with a prospeed as I intend to keep it another year.
